00:00:01,639 --> 00:00:09,200
Speaker 1: Welcome to episode Famous Songs with Misunderstood Meanings And at

2
00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:12,200
Speaker 1: my house to do the podcast today, and I feel

3
00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:16,160
Speaker 1: like it's a Sunday and you really wouldn't be working.

4
00:00:17,480 --> 00:00:22,360
Speaker 1: But because I have a pool, I'm here and you

5
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:25,040
Speaker 1: could use the kids could use the pool. Yeah, it

6
00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:27,760
Speaker 1: worked out wonderfully. It worked out great. Actually, so you

7
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:30,200
Speaker 1: be you don't buy about twenty minutes, yes, because it's

8
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:32,040
Speaker 1: it's becoming a thing now to leave the house at

9
00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:34,000
Speaker 1: the same time. If I want to be somewhere on time,

10
00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:37,200
Speaker 1: we've got to separate. Oh so you can't get out

11
00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:39,080
Speaker 1: on time with all four of the we tried. That

12
00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:40,639
Speaker 1: was the goal to all get here at the same time.

13
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:43,199
Speaker 1: I'm like, all right, I gotta go see there. So

14
00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:45,199
Speaker 1: what if they get here a while you're up here,

15
00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:48,120
Speaker 1: to go straight to the back? Okay? Cool? Right? Yeah,

16
00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:49,879
Speaker 1: to have them to go to that back like they

17
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:52,080
Speaker 1: know it. Yeah, I think so the two main doors,

18
00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:56,600
Speaker 1: don't If not, screw it, man, then figure it out. Yeah,

19
00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:59,760
Speaker 1: but that's Eddie. And so we were talking about doing

20
00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 1: this Bobby cast because we haven't done one, and people

21
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:04,040
Speaker 1: like these a lot more than I thought that, not

22
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:06,600
Speaker 1: that I I didn't think they would. It's just that

23
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:09,200
Speaker 1: we geek out a lot over music, and I didn't

24
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:11,000
Speaker 1: think a lot of people like that. I think they

25
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:15,240
Speaker 1: just like you. Oh cool Eddie from the Sore Losers podcast,

26
00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:17,560

28
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 1: about farts a lot or not? No? No? I mean

29
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,640
Speaker 1: sometimes we do. Yeah. Sometimes we talk about like hooking

30
00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:29,480
Speaker 1: up more than we should because past hookups and like

31
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:31,440
Speaker 1: what girls like that kind of stuff, And it's just

32
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:33,759
Speaker 1: like we shouldn't talk about all that. Let's just move on.

33
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:38,960
Speaker 1: At Home run last night. Check out the Sore Losers podcast. Um,

34
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:43,440
Speaker 1: but we're gonna do famous songs with misunderstood meanings. I'm

35
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:46,280
Speaker 1: trying to think of this well. And this is where

36
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 1: it all came from, because on the show recently, I

37
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 1: was talking about this song right here, Wonderful Tonight by

38
00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:57,760
Speaker 1: Eric Clapton, And people usually think this song is a

39
00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 1: love song, correct, straight up loves song. Yes, because he's like, yes,

40
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 1: you look wonderful. People dance their first dance. They play

41
00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:14,800
Speaker 1: it in romantic scenes of movies because again, most people

42
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:16,680
Speaker 1: feel it's a love song. But what it's really about

43
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:20,679
Speaker 1: is waiting for his girlfriend to get ready, like hurry up. Yeah,

44
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:23,760
Speaker 1: like hey, yeah, you look great, Let's go and again,

45
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,680
Speaker 1: lots of proms. Yeah. Do you know what cartillian is?

46
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 1: Let me see cartillion. It's got to be a rich

47
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:35,120
Speaker 1: person thing. Okay, cartillion? Is it the white person version

48
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:45,600
Speaker 1: of a um kenana or a I think that's what

49
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,239
Speaker 1: I don't I don't know. I mean, I'm a Mexican.

50
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:51,359
Speaker 1: I would assume that it's this. It's that right, right?

51
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 1: What is that? Write? A package of passage where like

52
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 1: a girl turns into a woman. Is that? You know

53
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 1: how you feel uncomfortable talking about I don't like talking

54
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 1: about girls running into women, But I think that's what

55
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 1: it was. Mike, Will you look up a cotillion? Because

56
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:06,400
Speaker 1: I was a little span of guy in South Texas

57
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:09,200
Speaker 1: and there was a group of white people that had

58
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:11,919
Speaker 1: cotillion and I got asked to cotillion by by one

59
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:14,240
Speaker 1: of these girls. What was your age? We were juniors

60
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 1: in high school, so seventeen, okay, so maybe a little

61
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:19,680
Speaker 1: older than yeah. And so this I remember this song

62
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 1: was our first dance because we got there and we're

63
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:24,680
Speaker 1: hanging out whatever, and this song came on and she

64
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:25,920
Speaker 1: was like this is a nice one. I liked this

65
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,520
Speaker 1: and let's dance to it. But this always reminds me

66
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:30,919
Speaker 1: of that Cotillion. I still don't even know what that is.

67
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:32,880
Speaker 1: The song gets used a lot of problems and weddings,

68
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:35,800
Speaker 1: but Eric Clapton wrote Wonderful Tonight in nineteen seventy six

69
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 1: while waiting for his girlfriend and future wife, Patty to

70
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:42,360
Speaker 1: get ready for a night out. They were going to

71
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:45,480
Speaker 1: a Buddy Holly tribute to Paul McCartney put together, and

72
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 1: Clapton was in the position that he was used to

73
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 1: of waiting while she tried on clothes. We've all been there,

74
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,440
Speaker 1: like many of us. Do you know the pat the

75
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:57,800
Speaker 1: George Harrison story. So Patty was married to George Harrison

76
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 1: back in the day and Eric Clapton, yeah, he's married that.

77
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 1: She was married to George Harrison from the Beatles when

78
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:11,040
Speaker 1: he wrote Layla, which depending on which version you know,

79
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:16,280
Speaker 1: I know, is that just Layla? The later version is, oh,

80
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:17,840
Speaker 1: there's the unplugged one to that. Okay, that's what I'm

81
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:19,400
Speaker 1: thinking of. Okay, okay, so you're thinking of the fast

82
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:23,240
Speaker 1: year La, don't no no, But then the slower one,

83
00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:28,039
Speaker 1: unplugged was we're almost saying the same thing back, but

84
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:31,920
Speaker 1: in our minds we're doing it. Clapton Harrison remained good friends,

85
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:35,240
Speaker 1: but Layla was about her, and Harrison even played at

86
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:37,599
Speaker 1: their wedding in nineteen seventy nine. But I thought her

87
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 1: name was Patty, not like but you don't always put

88
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,279
Speaker 1: the girls name because that writer's code. Eric and Patty

89
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:46,800
Speaker 1: then divorced. In Patty Boyd, Recall recalled that Eric Clapton

90
00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:49,000
Speaker 1: was sitting around playing his guitar while I was trying

91
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,480
Speaker 1: on dresses upstairs. I was taking so long, and I

92
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:53,719
Speaker 1: was panicking about my hair and my clothes everything. And

93
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 1: I came down downstairs expecting him to really berrate me,

94
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,159
Speaker 1: and he said, listen to this. In the time she

95
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,000
Speaker 1: had taken to get ready, Clapton had written this song

96
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:21,360
Speaker 1: right here. Turn that up. It's just how he says it.

97
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 1: It's because it's slow, because because if you would have

98
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 1: said it in normal in that if you asked me

99
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 1: like Green Day, all right, I said, yes, yes, you

100
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 1: look wonder boss. Let's go exactly. Yeah. A lot of

101
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:39,040
Speaker 1: it's the tempo of the song. You want another one? Yes,

102
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 1: These are misunderstood songs that are associated with something completely

103
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:54,200
Speaker 1: different Bruce Springsteen, Born in the USA. Most people think

104
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:56,720
Speaker 1: this song is about being super patriotic. Yeah, like I

105
00:05:56,760 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 1: was born in the USA, America. It's clear the opposite.

106
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honestly, I'd never really listen to these lyrics.

107
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:04,920
Speaker 1: I mean, either all that here is born in the USA.

108
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:07,560
Speaker 1: And also I believe the album cover, if I'm right,

109
00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:11,320
Speaker 1: had America flag wrapped on his hands like a bandana

110
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 1: or one of the two. It's back pocket. Yeah, okay, Hey,

111
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:15,440
Speaker 1: what was the cotillion? By the way, It's like a

112
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 1: French thing. So the cotillion is a dance at a

113
00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 1: debutant ball debutant. Yeah, I guess it's the same thing.

114
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,720
Speaker 1: They do it for their girls that are the right

115
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:28,920
Speaker 1: of passage. Creepiest thing you can say about. I think

116
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 1: that's what they said. I don't know, it's not my words. Um,

117
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 1: this song Born in the USA is really about casting

118
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 1: a critical and mournful eye on America and its involvement

119
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,360
Speaker 1: in war. Bruce Proks is gonna be like, what is happening?

120
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:45,159
Speaker 1: Sounds massive? Turn the turn of that for one second,

121
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:51,160
Speaker 1: I wonder what will you pull up the lyrics? Read

122
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:52,560
Speaker 1: me the first verse. I'll read you some of this

123
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 1: about it here. It's one of the most interpreted misinterpreted

124
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,200
Speaker 1: songs ever. Most people thought it was a patriotic song

125
00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 1: about American pride, when it actually is shameful on how

126
00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:06,520
Speaker 1: America treated its Vietnam veterans. Springsteen considered it one of

127
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 1: his best songs, but it bothers him that it's so

128
00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:14,720
Speaker 1: widely misinterpreted. With the rhythm, the enthusiastic chorus, and patriotic

129
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 1: album cover, it's easy to think, because you see all

130
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:19,560
Speaker 1: that in your here to do to that it has

131
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:21,880
Speaker 1: more to do with American pride than Vietnam shame. That's

132
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 1: what it says. Let's let's do the first lyrics here.

133
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:29,480
Speaker 1: It's um born down in a dead man's town. The

134
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 1: first kick I took was when I hit the ground,

135
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:34,840
Speaker 1: end up like a dog that's been be too much

136
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 1: until you spend half your life just covering up. I

137
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,760
Speaker 1: mean that verse alone just kind of says it. But

138
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:46,480
Speaker 1: we don't hear anything except born in the USA. Here

139
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 1: we go. Here's another lyric. Come back home to the refinery.

140
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:53,480
Speaker 1: Hiring man said, son, if it was up to me,

141
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:57,280
Speaker 1: went down to see my v a man, he said, Son,

142
00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:01,520
Speaker 1: don't you understand. I had a brother are at Keisan

143
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:06,120
Speaker 1: fighting off viet Cong. They're still there, he's all gone.

144
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:08,960
Speaker 1: He had a woman he loved in Saigon. I got

145
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,600
Speaker 1: a picture of him and arms now and it goes on.

146
00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:14,920
Speaker 1: You're right, that's not a patriotic song, not at all.

147
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:19,520
Speaker 1: But the choruses, that's crazy. I wonder who the first.

148
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:21,520
Speaker 1: I wonder whose idea it was would be like, hey,

149
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:24,280
Speaker 1: it's fourth of July, guys, play the greatest American song,

150
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:26,240
Speaker 1: Born in the USA. You can just tell we don't

151
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:27,960
Speaker 1: listen to lyrics. No, we don't know, not just me

152
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:31,960
Speaker 1: and you know, but the collective we of America. Springsteen

153
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:35,800
Speaker 1: wrote about the problems that Vietnam veterans encounter when they

154
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,480
Speaker 1: returned to America. Vietnam was the first war the US

155
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:40,959
Speaker 1: didn't win, and while veterans of other wars received a

156
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:43,720
Speaker 1: heroes welcome, those who fought in Vietnam were mostly ignored

157
00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 1: when they were turned back home. What year did that

158
00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:56,680
Speaker 1: come out? Eighties? Right? Yes, um, Born in the USA. Uh?

159
00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:58,560
Speaker 1: This dude who was going to make the movie Born

160
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 1: in the USA, but it was too associated with a song.

161
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:05,079
Speaker 1: Springste helped him out, providing the song Light of Day,

162
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 1: which became new to the movie. What movies you talking about? Oh,

163
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:13,240
Speaker 1: the original title was Vietnam, and he sent Springsteen the

164
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:15,080
Speaker 1: script for the movie called Born in the USA, about

165
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:17,760
Speaker 1: a rock band struggling with life and religion, which gave

166
00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:20,160
Speaker 1: Bruce the idea for the new title. Anyway, it's just

167
00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:23,360
Speaker 1: it's not what it seems. This is the epitome of

168
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 1: this subject. Like, no one thought that this song was

169
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:30,120
Speaker 1: a protest song. If you hear thunder, it's because it's

170
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 1: thundering outside. We are in a storm. Dolly partons I

171
00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:39,400
Speaker 1: Will Always love You. It's not it's not about a bodyguard.

172
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 1: Well that's another misconception. Um. People you just think this

173
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:46,680
Speaker 1: is a breakup song, like I will Always love You

174
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:49,000
Speaker 1: even though we're not together. I see that sec is

175
00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,840
Speaker 1: still a love song. But it's really a song about

176
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:54,800
Speaker 1: Dolly's mentor and appreciated the time they worked together. She

177
00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:58,600
Speaker 1: we've heard this story from her, so it's well, it's

178
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:01,360
Speaker 1: not a love song in the convention sense. So she

179
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:04,720
Speaker 1: wrote her for a close friend or Wagner Porter, Wagner.

180
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:06,520
Speaker 1: There you go, I believe, so let me keep reading.

181
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,280
Speaker 1: In nineteen sixty seven, she was invited by the country

182
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:11,960
Speaker 1: star Porter Wagner to coast his TV show, where they

183
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:15,560
Speaker 1: became famous for their duets, and as time, her enormous

184
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:19,240
Speaker 1: talent eclipsed that of him, and she basically got bigger

185
00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:22,480
Speaker 1: and decided to jump off. And so she wrote the

186
00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:25,600
Speaker 1: song about the time they had together, and I Will

187
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:28,880
Speaker 1: Always Love You, not a love song about kissy, kissy,

188
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:31,160
Speaker 1: but but a love song like hey, thanks, because they

189
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 1: weren't romantically involved, ye like I'll Always love you and

190
00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:35,840
Speaker 1: he and she said she just felt like she had

191
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:37,680
Speaker 1: to leave, and he was like, okay, well, good luck,

192
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:40,080
Speaker 1: because they thought he thought that they would just do

193
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:43,679
Speaker 1: that forever them too. She said leaving Porter Wagner wasn't easy.

194
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:46,200
Speaker 1: He thought she was making a big mistake and felt

195
00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 1: she was being disloyal. Dolly Parton played the song to

196
00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 1: Wagner the morning after she wrote it as a way

197
00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:52,679
Speaker 1: of letting him know that her mind was made up

198
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,960
Speaker 1: and to express how she felt about him. Apparently he

199
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:58,080
Speaker 1: got the message across. She said that he was in

200
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:00,400
Speaker 1: tears and called it the prettiest song ever her but

201
00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,400
Speaker 1: Allly down in nineteen seventy three, whenever they split. They

202
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:06,960
Speaker 1: were together seven years on that show and just working together,

203
00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:09,079
Speaker 1: and she wrote the song and stay here's how I feel.

204
00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:12,120
Speaker 1: I will always love you, but I gotta go. So

205
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:13,720
Speaker 1: it is it guess in a sense of the breakup

206
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 1: song too, in a way quote but I gotta go?

207
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,920
Speaker 1: It was It just wasn't about love. But again, it's

208
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:24,959
Speaker 1: not like romantic love. It's not about romantic love or

209
00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:27,040
Speaker 1: romantic breakup. But it is about loving a breakup. But

210
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:30,600
Speaker 1: we got it wrong and the bodyguard got it wrong too. Yeah,

211
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:33,480
Speaker 1: we refreshed my memory. What why why is that song

212
00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:36,280
Speaker 1: relevant in the movie in the Bodyguard, like they fall

213
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:38,360
Speaker 1: in love with each other? Right spoiler alert. I don't know.

214
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:40,840
Speaker 1: I've never seen a bodyguard. No, I just see Kevin

215
00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:42,480
Speaker 1: cost like jump out and take a bullet and then

216
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:44,839
Speaker 1: he carries her off. So somebody dies, right, Like does

217
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:46,240
Speaker 1: he carry her off? How does he take a bullet

218
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 1: and then he carries her off? I have no idea

219
00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 1: how the bodyguard goes. I've never seen the bodyguard? All right, Well,

220
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:53,439
Speaker 1: they messed it up to It was the second of

221
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:56,079
Speaker 1: five consecutive number one country hits that she had established.

222
00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:57,720
Speaker 1: And by the way, Dolly told us that she had

223
00:11:57,760 --> 00:11:59,280
Speaker 1: never heard the whitn in Houston VERSI until she was

224
00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:00,960
Speaker 1: driving in the road and roo car correct and she

225
00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:02,840
Speaker 1: was like she had a radio and I was like, whoa.

226
00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,040
Speaker 1: It was like a verbal agreement that she had. She

227
00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:07,280
Speaker 1: was like, yeah, whatever, and she'd forgotten all about that.

228
00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 1: She said, yeah, they she can record it. And she

229
00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 1: heard the final things like it's really good. That's what

230
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:17,240
Speaker 1: she said. Dust dude. Yeah, She's like, huh really good. Yeah.

231
00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:19,240
Speaker 1: You want to have your mind blown with another one.

232
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:24,880
Speaker 1: Come on Closing Time by Semisonic. It's not about a

233
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,920
Speaker 1: bar closing and you gotta go. It isn't it's not

234
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:31,280
Speaker 1: even about something closed. You're lying. There's no way listen

235
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:33,560
Speaker 1: to Hey, Mike, will you play this? From the very beginning,

236
00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:35,080
Speaker 1: he even says like you don't have to go home,

237
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 1: but you can't stay here. That's what every bar says. Yeah,

238
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:42,679
Speaker 1: I think they've taken it as their own. Whatever you're

239
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 1: about to say, I'm not gonna believe because the message

240
00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:48,120
Speaker 1: does fit the bar, but it also fits what I'm

241
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:51,080
Speaker 1: about to tell you. Okay, just listen a bit, all right,

242
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:59,360
Speaker 1: So this is Semisonic Closing Time, not about a bar

243
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:07,520
Speaker 1: closing or anything closing. He gotta go closing all the

244
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:12,640
Speaker 1: doors and let you out into you. I hear it, Mike,

245
00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:17,199
Speaker 1: when I know what it's about closing talking about turn

246
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:22,120
Speaker 1: all over the lights on over every boy and every girl.

247
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:28,200
Speaker 1: That's a bar, lights on, closing time, one last call

248
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:34,760
Speaker 1: for out come on show whisky beer. It literally could

249
00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:38,800
Speaker 1: be a bar. Yeah it is. You don't have well,

250
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:43,720
Speaker 1: you put the lyrics up on the page. Stay here

251
00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:51,199
Speaker 1: to take me, okay, take it up the bar situation.

252
00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:55,160
Speaker 1: It is nice about childbirth? What the thing is the

253
00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:57,480
Speaker 1: whiskey and beer coming? Well, you like, look at the

254
00:13:57,520 --> 00:13:59,880
Speaker 1: lyrics here again. All right, closing time, time for you

255
00:13:59,880 --> 00:14:02,400
Speaker 1: to go out into the world. Baby out of the womb.

256
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,640
Speaker 1: U turn on the lights over every boy and every girl.

257
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:08,920
Speaker 1: That's the baby's surgical room. Um. And then he put

258
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:11,080
Speaker 1: a couple of lines in here to also make it. No,

259
00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:13,320
Speaker 1: so you can't throw a line in. You don't have

260
00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:16,080
Speaker 1: to be so literal with everything. Okay, So how is

261
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 1: the whiskey and beer going childbirth? Like it doesn't have

262
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:23,200
Speaker 1: it doesn't have to be literal. Bars picked it because

263
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:26,240
Speaker 1: it was literal. Yeah, I mean, because that's what it is.

264
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:28,160
Speaker 1: That's so the singer said, it's about the birth of

265
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:30,160
Speaker 1: his daughter. When he wrote it, rather than write a

266
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:33,400
Speaker 1: cheesy song that was so blatantly about birth, he hid

267
00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:35,680
Speaker 1: the songs real meaning. He said, the guys wanted a

268
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:37,360
Speaker 1: new song to close our sets with, so I thought

269
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:39,880
Speaker 1: closing time would be a good title. We had spent

270
00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:41,800
Speaker 1: seven years of our lives at that point, four nights

271
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,560
Speaker 1: week entertaining people. That was our lives. I started realizing

272
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:47,240
Speaker 1: the whole thing was a pun about being born, so

273
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:48,720
Speaker 1: I made sure the rest of the thing could ride

274
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:51,360
Speaker 1: with that double meaning. But nobody got the joke, and

275
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:53,320
Speaker 1: I didn't bother to explain to everybody would get it

276
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:56,560
Speaker 1: because it's not an obvious joke. Yeah, it wasn't supposed

277
00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,680
Speaker 1: to be. It is had to be literal interesting, like

278
00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 1: time for you to go back to the places you'll

279
00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:03,680
Speaker 1: be from. The room will be open till your brothers

280
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:08,120
Speaker 1: and sisters come. I hope you found a friend. Every

281
00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:09,960
Speaker 1: new beginning comes from some other beginnings in but you

282
00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:14,680
Speaker 1: die in childbirth or don't take the girl crossover, like

283
00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:17,920
Speaker 1: when Eric went to full House Stefan no, no, just

284
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:21,280
Speaker 1: ye remember that. Um. He wrote the lyrics time for

285
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:22,880
Speaker 1: you to go out to the places you will be

286
00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:26,000
Speaker 1: from to show the song's focus was actually on the

287
00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:29,200
Speaker 1: miracle of childbirth rather than an ode to kicking late

288
00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:32,080
Speaker 1: night bar flies to the curb. He admitted that he

289
00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:34,720
Speaker 1: had babies on his mind part way through writing it.

290
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:37,480
Speaker 1: He said, we were expecting our first kid at birth.

291
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:40,440
Speaker 1: On the brain. It was struck, what a funny pun

292
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:42,440
Speaker 1: it would be being bounced from the womb. And I

293
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:45,640
Speaker 1: guess he wrote it by himself. Want Dan Wilson and

294
00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:51,080
Speaker 1: so much money. I mean, I'm not believe in the

295
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:56,160
Speaker 1: story the only writers. I feel like he's messing with us.

296
00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:58,200
Speaker 1: I feel like it's one of those things where like,

297
00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:00,480
Speaker 1: watch this, I'm gonna go to this interview, watch this,

298
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:04,760
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get them real good. Whatever. Dude, there'll be

299
00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:07,480
Speaker 1: a hater because you never caught it. But now every

300
00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:08,960
Speaker 1: time you hear it, you'll know, Yeah, I'm gonna be

301
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:11,760
Speaker 1: thinking of a baby. I mean, what's gonna do lyrics

302
00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:15,480
Speaker 1: and about stirrups, yea, let's go. Lightning crashes on that one,

303
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:19,440
Speaker 1: and again not so much about a baby being born.

304
00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:22,280
Speaker 1: He says, placenta falls exactly. You can't. It's like a

305
00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:25,640
Speaker 1: rebirth of life in general. In many ways, maybe I'm

306
00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:28,800
Speaker 1: just not that deep. Um every breath you take, by

307
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:35,240
Speaker 1: the police, it's a love song. It's a stalker stalker song. Yeah,

308
00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 1: that just clicks. People usually think the songs about being

309
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:42,200
Speaker 1: madly in love with someone, but it's really about a

310
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:46,120
Speaker 1: guys talking your girl. Come on, we can't do that again.

311
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:50,520
Speaker 1: A super misinterpreted song. An obsessive stalker that sounds like

312
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:53,760
Speaker 1: a love song. Well, the obsessive person feels like their

313
00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:56,960
Speaker 1: own love and to them it's just love right, keeps

314
00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:59,880
Speaker 1: talking to people don't know. I'm not. Some people use

315
00:16:59,880 --> 00:17:03,640
Speaker 1: it their wedding song. I'll say this too in this example.

316
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:07,119
Speaker 1: In the other examples, a song is the message is

317
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:09,960
Speaker 1: really what you make it, right, if you wanted to

318
00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:11,440
Speaker 1: use this as your wedding song, because you have a

319
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:16,840
Speaker 1: different meaning, and that's totally music, yea literature music like

320
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:21,520
Speaker 1: you can use it in the way that it affected you,

321
00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:25,240
Speaker 1: So that'd be I'm not gonna kind of bag on

322
00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:27,880
Speaker 1: anybody for using it as a wedding song. Maybe they

323
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 1: just google it, maybe before google it. If you do

324
00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:35,320
Speaker 1: it now, that's on you, like all the informations out there,

325
00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:38,399
Speaker 1: and we're telling you right now. Um. Yes, some people

326
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:40,960
Speaker 1: use it as UM again, their wedding song and first

327
00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:44,120
Speaker 1: dance song. The Police from man Sting wrote it after

328
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:48,760
Speaker 1: separating from his first wife Francis in three He said,

329
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:52,400
Speaker 1: it's a nasty song, really rather evil. It's about jealousy

330
00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:58,240
Speaker 1: and surveillance and ownership. Regarding the common misinterpretation of the song,

331
00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:03,840
Speaker 1: he said, I think ambigue. It is intrinsic, however, treated

332
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:06,879
Speaker 1: how you will. On one level, it's a nice ambiguity.

333
00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:12,280
Speaker 1: You can't really tell. It's an honest question. By the way. Yeah,

334
00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:13,960
Speaker 1: people are a little too embarrassed. I admit they don't

335
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:15,680
Speaker 1: know what words means. Because I'll read books. I like

336
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:17,480
Speaker 1: read books, come across the word on what it means,

337
00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:20,160
Speaker 1: I'll just look it up. Yeah, and my wife, there's

338
00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:21,240
Speaker 1: a lot of words like them. I was like, what

339
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:26,840
Speaker 1: does that mean? Um? In America, this is the biggest,

340
00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:29,359
Speaker 1: the biggest hit of nineteen three. It stayed number one

341
00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:35,080
Speaker 1: for eight weeks, longer than Billy Jean longer. Yeah, there's

342
00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:36,720
Speaker 1: the biggest song of how hard he goes on that

343
00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:40,280
Speaker 1: last part. Every breath you take, every move you make,

344
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:44,080
Speaker 1: every bond you break, every step you take, every game

345
00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:53,320
Speaker 1: you play, every night you stay it's so pissed. That's

346
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:55,200
Speaker 1: the point where it's like, and he wrote it by himself,

347
00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:59,040
Speaker 1: freaking Gordon Sumner. I had no idea that was real name.

348
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:04,160
Speaker 1: Gordon Sumner reminds me of Gordon sum Way. New Gordon

349
00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:07,119
Speaker 1: Shumway is I don't know. Type in Gordon chum Way

350
00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:09,920
Speaker 1: and see it comes up. I love, I believe that's ALF.

351
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:15,960
Speaker 1: I don't know. Again, I'm okay with asking a question here?

352
00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:19,520
Speaker 1: What an ALF stand for? Right? It was like, yeah,

353
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:25,040

355
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:38,560
Speaker 1: a good Mike. We can play a game like that

356
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:42,639
Speaker 1: in the acron for alien life form. Yeah, man, freaking

357
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:49,040
Speaker 1: Willie Tanner was the dead about I haven't either, but

358
00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:54,520
Speaker 1: freaking Gordon Shumway. That's awesome. That great Mike, Like said,

359
00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:57,560
Speaker 1: I happened to know Gordon, you know so much that

360
00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:01,199
Speaker 1: ran checked out? Yeah right, and that was it was

361
00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:03,840
Speaker 1: so obscure that I wasn't better Google that. How sure

362
00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:06,919
Speaker 1: of that? Were you? Beast? I like, okay, good like,

363
00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:08,720
Speaker 1: I give it an on a roll shutness, But I

364
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:10,919
Speaker 1: went straight to ALF. I wasn't a because that was

365
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:12,479
Speaker 1: so long ago and it could have been mixed up

366
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:16,760
Speaker 1: over the years. Yeah, ALF was cool because there was

367
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:19,040
Speaker 1: the show I liked ALF the TV show that it

368
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:20,720
Speaker 1: had a cartoon that was pretty good, and they developed

369
00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:22,520
Speaker 1: late and I talked show for it and and they

370
00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:24,640
Speaker 1: did it like on Nick at Night. But it never

371
00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:26,560
Speaker 1: really blew up. I think they wanted to go network

372
00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:34,119
Speaker 1: with it at first. But yeah, alf ALF was done

373
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:46,800
Speaker 1: um in the Air tonight by Phil Collins. I mean,

374
00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:51,080
Speaker 1: now I'm starting to think this is definitely about global

375
00:20:51,119 --> 00:21:03,680
Speaker 1: warming in it. Ok. People usually think the song is

376
00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:07,320
Speaker 1: about Phil Collins seeing a man let another man drown.

377
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:12,240
Speaker 1: What was the lyric that made people think that? Mike, Oh,

378
00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:14,280
Speaker 1: that one. Well, if you told me you were drowning,

379
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:17,080
Speaker 1: I would not lend a hand. I've seen your face before,

380
00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:18,720
Speaker 1: my friend, but I don't know if you know who

381
00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:37,040
Speaker 1: I am. Here you go, you face. So people thought

382
00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:40,760
Speaker 1: this was about like like you and Semisonic. Very simple.

383
00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:43,399
Speaker 1: They thought it was about a bar, but no, it's not.

384
00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:46,920
Speaker 1: It's really a song with no meaning. I hate that

385
00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:51,680
Speaker 1: the myth that people believe Phil Collins wrote the song

386
00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:54,560
Speaker 1: after watching a man let someone else drown. It's a

387
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:57,720
Speaker 1: big misinterpretation because Phil Collins says it's about nothing. He

388
00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:00,080
Speaker 1: said the song was written without any specific meaning behind it.

389
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:02,720
Speaker 1: He drew inspiration from his recent divorce at the time,

390
00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 1: but most of the lyrics were improvised, but that didn't

391
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:07,800
Speaker 1: stop people from spreading one of the most famous urban

392
00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:12,840
Speaker 1: legends in music history. The legend goes that Collins wrote

393
00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:14,960
Speaker 1: the song after watching a man let someone else drown,

394
00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:17,320
Speaker 1: which was lyric well, if you were drowning, I would

395
00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:21,400
Speaker 1: not lend a hand, and according to the myth, Collins

396
00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:27,520
Speaker 1: later found the guilty man at a concert. There's different

397
00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:31,240
Speaker 1: versions of the story too, and all of them are nutty,

398
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:33,879
Speaker 1: because when you have a song that means it means nothing,

399
00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:36,920
Speaker 1: you can do that, right, Yeah, you can just say

400
00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:39,520
Speaker 1: it's about whatever. One of the versions has a friend

401
00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:42,200
Speaker 1: of Phil Collins taken the place of the drowning man,

402
00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:44,720
Speaker 1: and another has Collins refusing to rescue a drowning man

403
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:47,399
Speaker 1: who raped his wife. They just got more absurd as

404
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 1: they go. Don't go, well, what's not true. Now that's

405
00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:52,880
Speaker 1: some fiction story right there. He came back and wrote

406
00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:54,800
Speaker 1: that song. No, no, no, no, it's not true. You're

407
00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:58,640
Speaker 1: missing the whole Why do well, that's kind of nothing.

408
00:22:58,680 --> 00:22:59,959
Speaker 1: That's kind of how we write songs at the big

409
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:04,680
Speaker 1: into edio play chords or and I'll just start yelling

410
00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:08,480
Speaker 1: a bunch of words to the melody and it's nothing, yes, improvised,

411
00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:10,159
Speaker 1: and then we kind of go back and adjusted to

412
00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:15,000
Speaker 1: make money out of it. Uh. Yeah. The myth has

413
00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:19,119
Speaker 1: submitted itself in popular culture and even was referenced in

414
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:23,240
Speaker 1: Stand Eminem Stand. You might remember these lyrics right here

415
00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:25,440
Speaker 1: from Eminem standing. Go ahead. You know the song by

416
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:27,480
Speaker 1: Phil Collins in the Air of It Tonight about that

417
00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:30,040
Speaker 1: guy who could have said that other guy's drowning, but

418
00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:32,119
Speaker 1: the then feel so at all that at it, so

419
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:34,400
Speaker 1: we found him. That's kind of how this is. Who

420
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:37,000
Speaker 1: could arrescue me for drowning? Now it's too big, I'm

421
00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 1: on a thousand downars now I'm drowsy. That one was allowed.

422
00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:45,200
Speaker 1: Why does Eminem say in the Air of the night,

423
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:46,879
Speaker 1: Because I'm about to say I thought the song was

424
00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:49,119
Speaker 1: called in the Air Tonight, But it's Stands saying it,

425
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:51,000
Speaker 1: so it could have been like him just getting it wrong.

426
00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:52,359
Speaker 1: I thought I'd got a wrong all these years. It's

427
00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:53,960
Speaker 1: about to go, wow, breakthrough. I thought it was called

428
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:56,400
Speaker 1: in the air tonight. That's crazy man. Yeah, but even

429
00:23:56,400 --> 00:24:00,280
Speaker 1: if even he had it wrong. Well standard One of

430
00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:04,360
Speaker 1: my favorite bands that no longer really is a relevant

431
00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:07,560
Speaker 1: band is r E M. Oh yeah, this one goes

432
00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:11,800
Speaker 1: out to the one I Love. This one goes out

433
00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:16,640
Speaker 1: to another one of those songs. Well most pople things

434
00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:19,679
Speaker 1: a love song obviously because it's just one so literal,

435
00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:22,280
Speaker 1: like goes out to I Love like a request. Yeah,

436
00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:25,399
Speaker 1: that's really about using someone over and over again. It

437
00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:27,159
Speaker 1: was our first hit, by the way, this is the

438
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:35,600
Speaker 1: first r M hit. This one goes out to the

439
00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:45,160
Speaker 1: one I Love fire and it's wild that their first

440
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:49,639
Speaker 1: hit was an eight seven. I wasn't listening to ori

441
00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:52,199
Speaker 1: M No. I was six or seven years old. But

442
00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:55,240
Speaker 1: there was that generational gap where like like my brother

443
00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:57,480
Speaker 1: he knew r M and then I liked r M

444
00:24:57,520 --> 00:24:59,919
Speaker 1: the later r M. Yeah, when r M hit for me,

445
00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:03,359
Speaker 1: it was Losing My religion was the big video. Uh.

446
00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:07,240
Speaker 1: This was their first hit song. It's not a love song.

447
00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:10,560
Speaker 1: He describes this song. That's about how people use people

448
00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:13,480
Speaker 1: over and over and over again, and until this line

449
00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:17,919
Speaker 1: here a simple prop to occupy my time is the

450
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:21,800
Speaker 1: lyric that goes, that's what I'm showing. That's the one

451
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:24,600
Speaker 1: that sets us straight right there. So what does he say? Fire?

452
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:29,640
Speaker 1: And then what she's coming she's coming down mountain? When

453
00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:38,000
Speaker 1: she comes pretty lea? Oh I never I've never heard

454
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:41,240
Speaker 1: that before the time. Listen, like, if you'll pause up

455
00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:43,400
Speaker 1: for one second. So what they yell in the background

00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,280

00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:12,960
Speaker 1: mean frat girls, a sorority girls, frat guys like this

476
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:16,359
Speaker 1: was their song. Like girls loved this song. And people

477
00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:18,639
Speaker 1: would think it's about a passionate love affair or a

478
00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:23,360
Speaker 1: love song. I got your skirt a little more your world.

479
00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:26,840
Speaker 1: To me, it's really about a next boyfriend peeping at

480
00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:28,720
Speaker 1: a woman from a window, because he does say that

481
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:32,720
Speaker 1: in the verse, you've got your ball, you got it's hard.

482
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:35,200
Speaker 1: He goes right there, bones on the bottom. I'm watching

483
00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:39,399
Speaker 1: there your window and I stare and you wear nothing.

484
00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:43,760
Speaker 1: That's it. These lines give it away. I watch you

485
00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:46,199
Speaker 1: there through the window and I stare at you. You

486
00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:50,520
Speaker 1: wear nothing, but you wear it so well. What creepy huh?

487
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:52,439
Speaker 1: That was written from the point of view from a

488
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:55,240
Speaker 1: boyfriend who wants his girlfriend bag. I watch you there

489
00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:57,320
Speaker 1: through the window, basically saying he's watching how beautiful she

490
00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:00,000
Speaker 1: is the song is about a boyeuristic man. Many people

491
00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:01,840
Speaker 1: conceive it as a love song and fail we'll see

492
00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:05,440
Speaker 1: the true meaning behind it. On Storyteller's Dave Matthews mentioned

493
00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:07,920
Speaker 1: that the song was written from a peeping tom perspective

494
00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:12,640
Speaker 1: and no one ever got that before. And if that's

495
00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:14,840
Speaker 1: not enough, he says, hike up your skirt a little

496
00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:18,000
Speaker 1: more to show your world to me. But again, if

497
00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:22,840
Speaker 1: you're not being literal with it right, it could mean

498
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:24,600
Speaker 1: anything like hig grops a little more shre world. It

499
00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 1: could be like exposed me to different feelings and thoughts.

500
00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:30,800
Speaker 1: Skirt covers one thing, but the skirt of the world

501
00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:35,400
Speaker 1: could be a beef skirt could be a fahita. Um.

502
00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:37,399
Speaker 1: I remember when my brother learned this on guitar and

503
00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:39,840
Speaker 1: he was so proud and he's like, dude, singing you

504
00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:41,160
Speaker 1: know all the words, and we sang it. We had

505
00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:44,160
Speaker 1: the whole family there and I was like, hack your

506
00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:46,920
Speaker 1: skirt more. My dad was like stop that, stop that

507
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:57,680
Speaker 1: next song. So so even says I'm the King of

508
00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:01,800
Speaker 1: the Castle, you hear the dirty rascal m a scroll

509
00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:05,920
Speaker 1: a little bit more. Mike, by the way, Day wrote

510
00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:08,120
Speaker 1: this song by himself. But what does that mean crashing

511
00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:10,240
Speaker 1: from you better by himself this people be making so

512
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:16,520
Speaker 1: much money solo writing these songs by David John Matthews

513
00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:19,400
Speaker 1: Crash into me? What's he meaning? Like, Let's get our

514
00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:22,000
Speaker 1: worlds together? Like but again you put our worlds together?

515
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:28,240
Speaker 1: Is also you can't mean anything. These guys are so artistic.

516
00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:32,320
Speaker 1: Slide by the Google Dolls wake up when you are

517
00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:46,160
Speaker 1: at all slide I have no clue. People usually think

518
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:49,200
Speaker 1: it's about being in love. It's really about unplanned pregnancy.

519
00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:52,720
Speaker 1: M hmm. The song is about dealing with an unplanned pregnancy,

520
00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:54,880
Speaker 1: with lyrics like I want to wake up where you

521
00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:57,600
Speaker 1: are or I'll do anything you ever dreamed to be complete.

522
00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:01,240
Speaker 1: It's understandable if you over look that as a song

523
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:04,880
Speaker 1: that's about pregnancy. Um oh oh, he says I'm gonna yeah.

524
00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:06,920
Speaker 1: He does say I'm gonna let it slide. Does that

525
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:08,680
Speaker 1: mean like, all right, I'll just let this one slide.

526
00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:10,800
Speaker 1: We got the baby, We're gonna We're gonna do this.

527
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:14,680
Speaker 1: Listen to this lyrics don't you love the life you killed?

528
00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 1: Meaning meaning like his, your priest is on the phone,

529
00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:22,960
Speaker 1: your father hit the wall, your mom disowned you. I'm

530
00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:29,560
Speaker 1: planning pregnancy, or maybe he's talking about her life like

531
00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:31,080
Speaker 1: like he may have she may have killed her own

532
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:34,480
Speaker 1: life by being pregnant, like like not literally, like figuratively,

533
00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:36,400
Speaker 1: like your life's over now you have to heise a kid.

534
00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:40,400
Speaker 1: The life you know you knew is done. Johnny Resnick

535
00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:43,640
Speaker 1: explained it during a storytellers slide is actually about these

536
00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:46,080
Speaker 1: two Catholic teenage kids and a girlfriend gets pregnant and

537
00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:47,920
Speaker 1: they're deciding whether they should get an abortion, or get

538
00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:49,560
Speaker 1: married or just go on. And I don't think a

539
00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:51,280
Speaker 1: lot of people get that. The singer described it as

540
00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:55,440
Speaker 1: a nuts so uh sad tale about some hard choices.

541
00:30:57,360 --> 00:31:01,720
Speaker 1: I think about that. It's pretty deep, yes, a little ditty.

542
00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:04,400
Speaker 1: We listened to all these songs not thinking about any

543
00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:08,840
Speaker 1: of this. American Pie by Don McClane. I can't remember.

544
00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:11,760
Speaker 1: You'll know what this is about. That's the it's the

545
00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:14,680
Speaker 1: death of the plane crash part of it, right, you say,

546
00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:18,719
Speaker 1: you're right. Mostly it's it encapsulates that whole era, and

547
00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:25,880
Speaker 1: that's and that plane crash um the fifties, you're right,

548
00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:28,400
Speaker 1: and not even the year, but so much, but that

549
00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:31,440
Speaker 1: era and what kind of was the exclamation point on

550
00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:34,440
Speaker 1: the end of it was the plane crash with Richie

551
00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:38,720
Speaker 1: Vallen's the Big Bopper Buddy Holly, and it's reference in

552
00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:44,640
Speaker 1: the song. But um, I mean jam right, Jam sang,

553
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:48,720
Speaker 1: this be the day that and the day that the

554
00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:54,080
Speaker 1: music died, literally is the day that that plane crashed

555
00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:56,760
Speaker 1: with all the music in it. But he said that

556
00:31:56,800 --> 00:32:01,280
Speaker 1: the lyrics were very ambiguous again, which means I know

557
00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:06,440
Speaker 1: what it means now, Like ambiguity means yeah, it's doesn't

558
00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:08,280
Speaker 1: make much sense. Can't tell really like you don't know

559
00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:10,680
Speaker 1: it could go by the way people ask me if

560
00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:12,600
Speaker 1: I left the lyrics open to ambiguity. Of course, I

561
00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:14,720
Speaker 1: didn't want to make a whole series of complex statements.

562
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:20,640
Speaker 1: He put the song's original manuscript for auction at Christie's call.

563
00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:25,240
Speaker 1: On the songs, I'm gonna guess it's he wrote about

564
00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:31,520
Speaker 1: himself too, these guys the six minute song, Mike is

565
00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:34,640
Speaker 1: it so so when he there are more people that

566
00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:39,040
Speaker 1: he's referencing, right, like when he says the Jester again,

567
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:42,560
Speaker 1: I think it's just a time and characters, right, And

568
00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:45,640
Speaker 1: I feel like these characters are just different artists. Well,

569
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:47,800
Speaker 1: I never thought about that they were all specific artists,

570
00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:50,080
Speaker 1: Like I think the Jester maybe would be Bob Dylan.

571
00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:53,200
Speaker 1: You could be honest something. I don't know my goo

572
00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:55,800
Speaker 1: with that, the Jester and miss American Bob Dylan. Because

573
00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:57,160
Speaker 1: if you're right about that, you can ride about the

574
00:32:57,160 --> 00:33:01,000
Speaker 1: ones to Yeah, Jackie nimble Jack be quickbviously, John Lennon,

575
00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:09,720
Speaker 1: John Jack huh, Don mc lean rod to buy himself. Oh,

576
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:19,600
Speaker 1: speaking of John Lennon, Imagine, I mean, I mean we

577
00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:22,720
Speaker 1: all know what this is about, right, go ahead, Imagine

578
00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:25,440
Speaker 1: what the world would be like with without these certain things.

579
00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:28,320
Speaker 1: Most people think that it's a song about peace and

580
00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:32,960
Speaker 1: global unity. Kind of what are you kind of because

581
00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:35,120
Speaker 1: he's just kind of saying, like, imagine if we didn't

582
00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:41,240
Speaker 1: have these people in power doing certain things religion, politics,

583
00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:48,800
Speaker 1: everything else, it's actually about WiFi dial up a o

584
00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:54,040
Speaker 1: L didn't even existed, you got me. That's funny. It's

585
00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:57,560
Speaker 1: uh more so because it's a slower tone. People think

586
00:33:57,560 --> 00:34:01,000
Speaker 1: it's super peaceful. It's not. It's like a song about

587
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:04,640
Speaker 1: revolutionary ideas of how to achieve peace but doing it

588
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:08,839
Speaker 1: through radical ways. But he was smart enough to go, well,

589
00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:11,799
Speaker 1: if I slow it down introdud as a ballad, people

590
00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:14,120
Speaker 1: are gonna feel like I'm hugging the world more than

591
00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:17,640
Speaker 1: screaming it. Who does he say that, I'm I'm I'm not.

592
00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:20,040
Speaker 1: Why did he not say it like that? Because it's true?

593
00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:22,440
Speaker 1: And then us we're all like the slow song, so

594
00:34:22,600 --> 00:34:27,840
Speaker 1: I like it's the song is actually about the Communist manifesto.

595
00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:33,760
Speaker 1: And now I'm reading earlier that was just me amusing myself.

596
00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:36,680
Speaker 1: That's pretty good. Most people think that ballads The ballad

597
00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:39,719
Speaker 1: imagines about people putting us oide their differences, but it's

598
00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:43,160
Speaker 1: more political. According to Rolling Stone, he once described the

599
00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:46,920
Speaker 1: song as virtually the Communist manifesto. And even though I'm

600
00:34:46,960 --> 00:34:49,400
Speaker 1: not particularly a communist and not belong to any movement,

601
00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:51,640
Speaker 1: the song clearly asked the listener to imagine a world

602
00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:55,560
Speaker 1: without religion or possessions, but Linen admitted he intentionally admitted

603
00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:58,440
Speaker 1: he intentionally tried to sugarcoat his message. But the song,

604
00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:04,400
Speaker 1: the sweetness of the song like only it's like, oh imagine,

605
00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:07,080
Speaker 1: it's a big hit almost everywhere in a beautiful song

606
00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:12,440
Speaker 1: because it's anti religious, anti nationalistic, anti conventional, anti capitalistic,

607
00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:22,239
Speaker 1: and because it's well soften like honey. But this video

608
00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:35,000
Speaker 1: is so good too. The white piano uh Sarah McLaughlin angel. Yeah,

609
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:42,120
Speaker 1: it's about puppies. Puppies h A right, Sarah, and for

610
00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:45,279
Speaker 1: the Low Low prize at you can help Sparky. Yeah,

611
00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:47,080
Speaker 1: I nor really has one eye, but you can help

612
00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:49,080
Speaker 1: that one eye. And it always airs like three in

613
00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:51,480
Speaker 1: the morning when everyone's drunk, like all right, here's my wallet,

614
00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:57,759
Speaker 1: this is for you, Sparkie. Oh grat what did I

615
00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:04,560
Speaker 1: do last night? Adopted thirty? Wait, what's the Sparky's new eye?

616
00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:10,839
Speaker 1: What the Sarah McLaughlin got me again. Um the song

617
00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:13,640
Speaker 1: most people think about angels and losing someone, it's really

618
00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:18,760
Speaker 1: about heroin addiction. Yeah, more specifically the guy from Smashing

619
00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:24,799
Speaker 1: Pumpkins who died. Really who was that? The keyboartist he

620
00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:29,239
Speaker 1: died And I'll read a quote. I went to a

621
00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:33,480
Speaker 1: cottage north of Montreal to relax and write. I read

622
00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:36,560
Speaker 1: about the Smashing Pumpkins keyboard player who had oded in

623
00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:40,040
Speaker 1: a hotel room. She wrote this about a song about

624
00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:43,839
Speaker 1: the drug addict struggles with the world. The angel symbolizes

625
00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:47,040
Speaker 1: the drugs the addict gives into repeatedly in the arms

626
00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:53,839
Speaker 1: of an angel meaning the drugs. She said. The story

627
00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:56,560
Speaker 1: shook me because altho way I had never done drugs

628
00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:58,760
Speaker 1: like that. I felt a flood of empathy for him

629
00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:01,320
Speaker 1: and the feeling of being lost, lonely and desperately searching

630
00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:06,520
Speaker 1: for some kind of release, and that release with drugs or,

631
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:10,160
Speaker 1: as some people would have it, their angel. Wow. Crazy, right,

632
00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:17,560
Speaker 1: people use this one in like funerals, right, sure, maybe

633
00:37:17,520 --> 00:37:21,160
Speaker 1: because angel is literally's taking the end the little interpretation

634
00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:24,960
Speaker 1: I've never heard in a funeral, but it would make sense. Wow,

635
00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:27,200
Speaker 1: this is I mean that changes this. I mean that

636
00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:29,080
Speaker 1: song is. This song has always been beautiful to me,

637
00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:31,120
Speaker 1: but it's always been like, I don't know it's about pretty,

638
00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:33,839
Speaker 1: but wow that I mean. I'm reading it now and like, yeah,

639
00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:36,440
Speaker 1: that's pretty deep. Spend all your time waiting for that

640
00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:39,719
Speaker 1: second chance, for a break that would make it okay.

641
00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:43,480
Speaker 1: There's always some reason to feel not good enough, and

642
00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:45,680
Speaker 1: it's hard at the end of the day. I need

643
00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:51,040
Speaker 1: some distraction. Oh, beautiful release, memory seep from my veins.

644
00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:56,040
Speaker 1: There's the hotel room too, and maybe empty I would

645
00:37:56,080 --> 00:37:59,960
Speaker 1: wait less and maybe I'll find some peace tonight. Wow.

646
00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:02,680
Speaker 1: Just a different feeling about it. When you know what

647
00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:06,319
Speaker 1: you're talking about, drug addiction and drugs from this dark hole.

648
00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:08,520
Speaker 1: You're right in the chorus in the arms of an Angel,

649
00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:12,239
Speaker 1: fly away from here from this dark, cold hotel room

650
00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:17,879
Speaker 1: and the endlessness you fear? Wow, Oh, another super sad one.

651
00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:20,040
Speaker 1: Do you think that one's gonna get you? Sarah McLaughlin

652
00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:22,960
Speaker 1: wrote that one on your own too. Maybe they're just

653
00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:27,360
Speaker 1: writing one person, but surely um the next one, don't

654
00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:34,279
Speaker 1: cry Hansen and Bob, Now what's this one about? What

655
00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:38,240
Speaker 1: do you think it's about? I have no idea tune Bob,

656
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:40,120
Speaker 1: and now there's more in the verses that I don't

657
00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:41,719
Speaker 1: remember what they say. Most people think it's just to

658
00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:45,160
Speaker 1: catch pop song that really means nothing, not true. It's

659
00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:47,120
Speaker 1: really about how everything we love will be gone before

660
00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:51,400
Speaker 1: we know it. What does umbop have to do with that?

661
00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:56,320
Speaker 1: They made the word up, and it really isn't some

662
00:38:56,360 --> 00:39:01,400
Speaker 1: made up word. This It bop represents a frame of

663
00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:04,879
Speaker 1: mind and then bop They're gone like bop, It's gone,

664
00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:08,240
Speaker 1: like who was gone? Oh? Just like that? Yeah, okay,

665
00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:14,440
Speaker 1: because Bob's a word. The whole song is about the

666
00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:16,319
Speaker 1: fact that almost everything in your life will come and

667
00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:19,360
Speaker 1: go quickly. You gotta figure out what matters and grab

668
00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:22,239
Speaker 1: onto those things. Boy, they don't really love doing that song.

669
00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:26,080
Speaker 1: Though no, and then they do. They do, but they don't.

670
00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:28,640
Speaker 1: Like everyone has respect for that one song that did

671
00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:30,200
Speaker 1: it for them, but it's I mean, it's gonna be

672
00:39:30,239 --> 00:39:33,040
Speaker 1: hard when that's the one you sing all the time. Well,

673
00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:37,399
Speaker 1: they played our million Dollar Show, and I like those

674
00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:41,880
Speaker 1: guys and I know Tyler a bit, Taylor Taylor how

675
00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:44,640
Speaker 1: well I know Tyler and Jim And I was thinking

676
00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:46,520
Speaker 1: about having my phone as um because I don't want

677
00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:48,680
Speaker 1: to put up with Taylor Hanson. You want to see it,

678
00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:54,040
Speaker 1: Tyler Hanson, Tyler Hanson. It literally is so um. Taylor

679
00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:57,560
Speaker 1: had come and sat beside me and the seats of

680
00:39:57,560 --> 00:40:00,680
Speaker 1: the rheme and was like, hey, man, can we not

681
00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:03,919
Speaker 1: do him, Bob, We'd prefer to do this other song.

682
00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:06,600
Speaker 1: And that's a hard that's a hard question for you,

683
00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:08,359
Speaker 1: and it just comes right out to me and asked me.

684
00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:10,480
Speaker 1: And I respected that he asked me straight up and

685
00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:12,920
Speaker 1: just didn't get on and not play it. But at

686
00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:16,880
Speaker 1: the same time, everybody came to see Bob that was

687
00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:19,399
Speaker 1: coming to that show. Is that what you I was like, Man,

688
00:40:19,440 --> 00:40:22,000
Speaker 1: you can play whatever else you want, but you gotta

689
00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:26,680
Speaker 1: play them Bob, Like that's it again. You don't gotta.

690
00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:29,560
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna make you, but I can't sit here

691
00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:31,080
Speaker 1: and say, you know what, go ahead, do whatever you want.

692
00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:32,919
Speaker 1: Like everyone here wants you to play you in Bob,

693
00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:35,839
Speaker 1: so if I'm asking, please play Bob. And they did,

694
00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:38,680
Speaker 1: and everybody freaking jerked their phones out quicker than I've

695
00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:41,920
Speaker 1: seen almost anybody pull their phones to any artist. So

696
00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:45,000
Speaker 1: but and it's also super a kid. So I'm sure

697
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:47,279
Speaker 1: they're adults and they have kids. They have probably kids

698
00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:50,440
Speaker 1: that are close enough there, so we'll be like writing

699
00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:51,800
Speaker 1: a song when you're fourteen and having to sing it

700
00:40:51,800 --> 00:40:55,440
Speaker 1: when you're thirty and over. I remember when they committed

701
00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:57,440
Speaker 1: and you told me. They're like, oh, they're gonna do

702
00:40:57,440 --> 00:40:59,200
Speaker 1: the show, and I'm like, oh great, so we might

703
00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:02,200
Speaker 1: have to learn hum Bob. And I looked over the

704
00:41:02,239 --> 00:41:07,240
Speaker 1: oom Bob. I'm like, I'm never gonna memorize that. Ever.

705
00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:09,799
Speaker 1: You have a favorite hands and song that oom Bob?

706
00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:12,200
Speaker 1: No no, no, I like, oh, there's another one that

707
00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:15,239
Speaker 1: I really like. It's about a girl. Maybe that Penny

708
00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:17,520
Speaker 1: and Me is a good one. Any he was really good.

709
00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:19,680
Speaker 1: Did they do that on our show? Maybe? I think

710
00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:22,800
Speaker 1: they did so good? Um, will you pull up the

711
00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:27,000
Speaker 1: hands and playlist Mike Penny and he's a jam. My

712
00:41:27,040 --> 00:41:38,920
Speaker 1: favorite is I Will come to you. Whoa, They're so

713
00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:43,080
Speaker 1: good they are it's challenged. Will you play it from

714
00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:48,560
Speaker 1: the beginning? Will you play I will come Mimacum, it's

715
00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:50,440
Speaker 1: to you. I will come to you. I will come

716
00:41:50,480 --> 00:41:55,120
Speaker 1: to you. When' that you know this one? This is

717
00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:59,080
Speaker 1: deep cut. This is the hands and deep cut. Nope,

718
00:42:03,280 --> 00:42:20,919
Speaker 1: you have to go and come to you. Come on, jam,

719
00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:28,080
Speaker 1: I will come to you. I will come to you.

720
00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:36,759
Speaker 1: Um your dreams. Well, I believe that does it for

721
00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:39,759
Speaker 1: today's show man. It's funny how you said, like a

722
00:42:39,760 --> 00:42:42,160
Speaker 1: lot of these stories came out of like storytellers and

723
00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:46,960
Speaker 1: didn't bring storytellers back with like Ariana Grande and be like, Ariana,

724
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:49,839
Speaker 1: what is the when you say you like my hair

725
00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:53,719
Speaker 1: just bought it? What do you mean by that? Like?

726
00:42:53,840 --> 00:42:56,400
Speaker 1: You know, Storytellers was huge to us and we learned

727
00:42:56,480 --> 00:42:57,840
Speaker 1: so much. And she'll be like, well, how was it

728
00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:01,520
Speaker 1: done with thirteen people? Actually I wasn't even there and

729
00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:03,440
Speaker 1: we were just thrown out words. Of course, we made

730
00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:05,080
Speaker 1: a melody. They gave us the beat and we went

731
00:43:05,719 --> 00:43:08,319
Speaker 1: do do and then we had to fit words over

732
00:43:08,320 --> 00:43:11,280
Speaker 1: and those two things haven't a fit because I remember

733
00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:15,040
Speaker 1: learning that like Pearl jam Eddie Vetter wrote like Betterman

734
00:43:15,160 --> 00:43:18,920
Speaker 1: or something fifteen years before the band even got together.

735
00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:22,040
Speaker 1: Oh yeah yeah, and they we're learned that from storytellers.

736
00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:24,759
Speaker 1: Well it's like County Crows when they were the himalay Is.

737
00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:28,120
Speaker 1: I didn't know that. Hey we look up that again.

738
00:43:28,160 --> 00:43:32,799
Speaker 1: I could miss this up there. His band was the Himalayas. Oh,

739
00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:35,560
Speaker 1: it could have been a different mountain range. It's been

740
00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:40,279
Speaker 1: o was it everest? Let's see because the last thing

741
00:43:40,239 --> 00:43:42,239
Speaker 1: I wanted to leave something up here. That's wrong. But

742
00:43:42,239 --> 00:43:43,880
Speaker 1: but some of those songs were even on that record,

743
00:43:44,600 --> 00:43:50,719
Speaker 1: the first record, The County Crows, Berkeley, California. First name

744
00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:59,160
Speaker 1: now type in um County Crows, um original band. There

745
00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:02,279
Speaker 1: is there is the himalay Is. Round here was the

746
00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:08,480
Speaker 1: Himalays round here? No way? Yeah, American rock band between

747
00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:13,399
Speaker 1: they're best known for starting their career this is that's

748
00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:16,319
Speaker 1: the base. This is the himalay Is doing round here. Wow,

749
00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:18,600
Speaker 1: that's I mean, that's a different sound for sure. Yeah.

750
00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:22,080
Speaker 1: So again they had written that song and cut it

751
00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:23,120
Speaker 1: on there. We can do it. We can do a

752
00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:26,359
Speaker 1: whole Bobby cast on this on bands that were before

753
00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:31,359
Speaker 1: the band. We just break down all of that Storytellers

754
00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:37,359
Speaker 1: Live CD. Hey, um, you know it would be fun

755
00:44:38,080 --> 00:44:42,120
Speaker 1: at this point because Adam Durrett's used to be really famous.

756
00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:44,280
Speaker 1: At this point, I could probably it on pretty easily.

777
00:46:19,040 --> 00:46:22,759
Speaker 1: They're probably down watching TV the snacks. I'm started watching

778
00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:25,680
Speaker 1: the show called The Boys on Amazon. It's about it's

779
00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:29,000
Speaker 1: a superhero show, but it's like real life, meaning as

780
00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:31,040
Speaker 1: reel life as you can be. It's like these people

781
00:46:31,040 --> 00:46:33,600
Speaker 1: are superheroes, but it's like the real problems have real

782
00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:40,080
Speaker 1: like like addiction, um, like sex stuff, and they live

783
00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:43,480
Speaker 1: on Earth. Wow, that sounds good. It's really good. Like

784
00:46:43,560 --> 00:46:46,400
Speaker 1: you're watching it one season? Yeah, it's eight episodes. And

785
00:46:46,440 --> 00:46:48,160
Speaker 1: if you have this is not a commercial. By the way, No,

786
00:46:48,239 --> 00:46:49,960
Speaker 1: I have Amazon. If you have Amazon Prime and you

787
00:46:50,080 --> 00:46:52,520
Speaker 1: order stuff, you get all the shows too, which I

788
00:46:52,520 --> 00:46:54,080
Speaker 1: didn't know for a long time. I had to buy

789
00:46:54,080 --> 00:46:57,000
Speaker 1: a second separate descriptions. No way. But it also comes

790
00:46:57,000 --> 00:46:58,120
Speaker 1: with a lot of other stuff that you didn't know

791
00:46:58,160 --> 00:47:01,040
Speaker 1: you had, like TV stuff like golf tournaments. They're all

792
00:47:01,080 --> 00:47:04,040
Speaker 1: on there for free. For for my gambling. You know,

793
00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:07,719
Speaker 1: if you like golf, like basketball games that you normally

794
00:47:07,719 --> 00:47:10,439
Speaker 1: wouldn't find. They're on there, I'm gonna go. I'm gonna

795
00:47:10,440 --> 00:47:14,440
Speaker 1: go play racquetball with Amy's husband. The big debate was

796
00:47:14,480 --> 00:47:16,719
Speaker 1: while I win, yes, you say yes? I think you

797
00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:19,600
Speaker 1: will because because he's good. He's a bigger guy and

798
00:47:19,600 --> 00:47:22,239
Speaker 1: I feel like he's stronger than you. But racketball is

799
00:47:22,239 --> 00:47:25,360
Speaker 1: about but he's a bigger guy and not fat. He's no,

800
00:47:25,680 --> 00:47:28,160
Speaker 1: he's pretty in shape though. He flew us this week

801
00:47:28,680 --> 00:47:30,640
Speaker 1: and he had a tucked in shirt and he did

802
00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:32,600
Speaker 1: he looks good. Yeah, he looks good, but I don't.

803
00:47:32,719 --> 00:47:35,319
Speaker 1: He doesn't write like like you do the peloton bike

804
00:47:35,440 --> 00:47:38,560
Speaker 1: like mccardio. But it's more than just running. Yeah, it's fast,

805
00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:40,719
Speaker 1: that's mostly what racketball is, back and forth? Do you

806
00:47:40,800 --> 00:47:42,400
Speaker 1: know you gotta be able to hit it? Though he

807
00:47:42,520 --> 00:47:45,799
Speaker 1: mostly Eddie's given me his prognostication on rack. I feel

808
00:47:45,840 --> 00:47:47,279
Speaker 1: like I could give you a good running back of ball.

809
00:47:47,280 --> 00:47:50,000
Speaker 1: There is no way like, not like unless you've played those.

810
00:47:50,040 --> 00:47:52,719
Speaker 1: And it's not even my athletic prowess. It's playing the

811
00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:55,560
Speaker 1: angles off the walls all the time. I know many,

812
00:47:55,560 --> 00:48:00,279
Speaker 1: I'm gonna play the game. Cool, cool, Bobby, see that

813
00:48:00,400 --> 00:48:02,239
Speaker 1: it would you do ten bucks at four to one

814
00:48:02,280 --> 00:48:05,720
Speaker 1: odds meaning you would win ten dollars, but you would

815
00:48:05,920 --> 00:48:09,600
Speaker 1: lose forty I would correct, but if you bet on me,

816
00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:11,239
Speaker 1: you can win a lot more than that, but you

817
00:48:11,239 --> 00:48:15,279
Speaker 1: would lose ten. Win for it. Thanks Mike appreciated that.
